Memory is a unique phenomenon of human mentality without which human life is simply inconceivable. In remembrance allows to hold and reproduce human experience (individual and collective) that gives us the chance to use it in different types of activity.
Possibilities of memory at each person are deeply individual. Probably, among acquaintances of each of us there is a person who with ease is memorable phone numbers and in case of need reproducing them. Often the people surrounding us remember much more details concerning events which participants they were together with us, and we are surprised why some details "dropped out" of our memory. All listed phenomena are explained by specific features of memory and lead our reflections to a question of whether it is possible to develop memory.
Whatever possibilities of our memory were, we are capable to influence them and to work on disclosure of own potential, and irrespective of age. It is possible to develop memory of the person at any age, however over time it is necessary to make more and more efforts for it. The question of that is important, how exactly to develop memory at adults and what nuances should be considered at the same time. Development of memory in adults allows to increase memory size, to prolong "period of storage" of information in the head of the person, to involve the hidden reserves of a brain.
To put development on the right track, it is necessary to analyze own problems and to pick up according to them individual ways of development of memory.
How to develop memory at adults?
It is necessary to understand, memory, what of types (visual, acoustical, figurative, verbal) at you it is developed more. Popular belief that visual memory the person the strongest, however has exceptions of this rule. For example, the people having short-sightedness often best of all perceive information aurally (and, as a rule, hearing at people with visual impairment sharper, than at well seeing). Also psychologists claim that those types of memory which are used most often are the most developed at the person.

A striking example of use of a mnemonics are known for all since the childhood methods of storing of colors of the rainbow ("Each Hunter Zhelayet Znat Where the Pheasant Sits"), cases ("Ivan Rodil the Little girl, Ordered to Drag the Diaper"), Pythagorean theorem ("Pythagorean trousers are extensively equal"), etc.
Important in development of memory at adults to select the corresponding food allowance including vitamins C, E, V6, B12. The use of fish (especially a salmon, a tuna, a sardine), nuts (first of all walnut), carrots will do good.

The greatest effect is reached when at the person the set of exercises for memory development calculated on gradual complication, increase in volume, use of various receptions is developed.
The surprising and inspiring fact is that purposeful and methodical development of memory in adults by all means involves also positive changes in other spheres of mentality: together with memory thinking in general develops, informative opportunities of the person improve.
